Jaw shift soon after surgery?

#1 Post by Nebcat »

Hey guys,

I had double jaw surgery 6 weeks ago today (bottom and top jaw moved forward). Right after my surgery, my bite was perfect. There was literally no space between my top and bottom teeth. In other words my bite was perfect. Now I notice there is a little more than half a millameter in space between my top and bottom teeth and it looks like it may be because my bottom jaw moved back a bit. I'm worried my bottom jaw may be sliding back. Can anyone confirm if this happened to them? Any advice is greatly appreciated :(
